3) Chairman's Report: Bruce Elgort- 3 contests the last year. Lots of
contributions. Appathon just finished. The chairman thanked the contributors
for great contributions- New site launched in September 2012:
Collaboration Today. Curated news with RSS feeds and a Twitter feed with
>1,000 followers- XSnippet.info continues to be a valuable
resource. 30 snippets over the last 6 months- IBM Connect: several OpenNTF members
gave sessions. The OpenNTF sessions on apps had high attendance- IBM Connect: unfortunately no vendor
passes for OpenNTF members to man the booth- Non-profil status (501c6/501c4): still
no official IRS status on non-profit. Initial submission was rejected- Open source for IBM Connections is
important to provide open source for more than just Notes/Domino- 32 member companies

4) Technical Committee Working Group
Report: Niklas Heidloff- 5th XPages contest just ended. IBM
Connections contest still running- 145 contributions from 119 contributors
during those 5 contests. More than 50 first-time contributors- Deadline for IBM Connections contest
extended because of availability of new SmartCloud Connections instance- Webinars: 2 webinars so far. 3rd webinar
coming up next week. OpenNTF wants to be more than just open source but
also help the app dev community- Project and snippets download numbers
are still high. 200,000 downloads last year- UI: OpenNTF.org, XSnippets.info and
XPages.info do not have the same UI. OpenNTF UI has been cleaned up. Google
search is now used for site search.- Oval Business Solutions has offered
to redesign the site at a low cost. OpenNTF is talking with Oval Business
Solutions on how to do this

5) Strategy and Marketing Working Group
Report- John Head was unable to participate.
Strategy and marketing working group report will be provided later

6) IP Working Group Report: Peter Tanner- Catalog: projects are now marked as
cleared or not- Changes to the project download page:
the download page now clearly shows the license for that particular download- 640 contributors covered by independent
or corporate license agreement.- 2 large corporate license agreements:
IBM and GBS, with 385 contributors

7) Financial Report: Corey Davis- Cash on hand: $23K. $10K set aside
for Appathon contest- Currently no accounts payable and
no accounts receivable- Only one advertiser that continues
to advertise.- OpenNTF needs advertisers

8) Elections for the board: Bruce Elgort
and Peter Tanner- Bruce Elgort retires as chairman this
term- Directors: member directors and contributor
directors- Bruce would like to work with the
new chairman before Bruce retires.

8) Open Discussion- Nathan Freeman: as a developer the
implementation of the process is frustrating and time consuming. It takes
14 steps to make a new build that the IP Manager can review. Nathan has
ideas on how to streamline the process. A simpler process is needed. It
takes time to build the zip file with all the necessary contests such as
licensing and notice files. The OpenNTF site could handle that automatically.
Nathan would like to help build a tool that does the work for the developer- Nathan Freeman: the board does a great
job - especially with the contests- Fredrik Malmborg: new company member
and Fredrik looks forward to help more- Sean Cull: more people use source
control and offer source code on Github. What are the views on how OpenNTF
will work in the future? Comments from Per, Niklas and Peter: OpenNTF can
add value by making it possible to download the binary release, offer the
IP model of release clearance etc. OpenNTF also makes it easy to find related
projects and acts as a landing page (which is difficult on Github).
